For those that are post op what temperature do you take your steaks now? I was a medium rare to medium just depending on the cut. Now a medium rare is too undercooked and leads to digestion hell for me. This weekend I had a 6oz filet cooked medium and the difference in digestion was substantial.

I still eat mine rare or barely medium rare. No issues.

I don't eat beef any longer. I tried it once at about four months and had a major dumping incident. I generally stick with fish and chicken these days.

My stomach would be in hell from rare. It takes a very long time to digest and have to be particularly careful not to eat and drink with steak even more than with most foods.

same.

I can also eat it at medium just fine (don't prefer it at this temp, but will eat it when I accidentally overcook it this way)

I have tested this with my brother who also had the surgery - Here is my key hope it works for you

Sous Vide - Our favorite is skirt steak - I buy the a big bag from Restaurant Depot and take a long time cleaning it and removing all the fat. Then I beat the hell out of it and use a needle tenderizer. Then Marinade it with Lime juice pineapple and into the Sous Vide. let it cook for about 6 hours at 125 degrees. No flash it on the grill supper hot for one minute a side.

Key is it is tender and moist and will go down easy. The Sous Vide machine is the greatest machine i bought for cooking Protein keeps it moist and tender

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
